The chromosome that is associated with the disease is chromosome 4. In the chart below, it shows Chromosome 4. Inside of Chromosome 4, it shows the DNA and the DNA strand. On the DNA strand, it shows nucleotides. This where the HD comes in. If you look at the chart, you noticed something strange about the nucleotides in yellow. They repeat. This is a mutation in the DNA strand where the nucleotide repeats more than 36 times, which cause HD.
